Monaco Welcomes New Coach Sébastien Pocognoli After Sudden Shake-Up

Monaco, renowned for its eight Ligue 1 titles, has made a strategic decision by hiring Sébastien Pocognoli as the new head coach. This move follows the sacking of Adi Hütter, who struggled with defensive issues despite a strong offensive performance.

Pocognoli, a former Belgian national and coach, signed a contract lasting until June 2027, bringing his success from Union Saint-Gilloise where he led them to their first championship in 90 years. The decision comes in the wake of fluctuating performances that dropped Monaco to fifth in the standings.

As Monaco prepares for their next match against Angers, fans and management look toward Pocognoli's leadership to reclaim their place at the top, addressing both defensive weaknesses and capitalizing on their offensive strengths.
